#vlog 30 Why I Won't Be Upgrading To Bitcoin Core v30

Why would you not run @BitcoinKnots at this point? Genuinely asking

Not upgrading either.

And so basically, fuck you core v30, AIN'T HAPPENIN

And what do you think about this then? Genuinely asking.

I think all three reasons you cited are inaccurate. 1. datacarriersize is marked as deprecated in this release. That's different than deprecation in that it still works, you just get a deprecation warning. 2. Increasing the limit is a matter of reflecting the reality of consensus rules. Looser relay policy is just more reflective of what can be done by taking a transaction to a private mempool service, which has an effect on mining centralization. It's not a non-technical, administrative reason. 3. The lowered dust limit is still reflective of the increased value of a sat since the last time the setting was changed. Yes, MARA stopped mining them over concerns of orphaned blocks, but those concerns may have been overblown as we see plenty of miners willing to take subsat transactions.

Bravo sir.

The node wars. Knots must win

Sharp shooter and straight to the facts. Rhat way there's no room for all the non-sense flame wars around this topic. Good for you.

@skot9000 Thank you. Jimmy knows. Be like Jimmy.

Fixed it for you

This is related.

Do you hate plebs? Idiots using the blockspace will always be a thing, but now they compete with my financial transactions. I want them to be competing at 0.1 sat per vbyte so I can pay 0.3-1 sat per vbyte for my really important tx without breaking the bank. Price has gone >10x

Thank you for sharing your thought. I agree and in fact am running Knots.

You don't mention the main economic driver - ensuring public relay policy matches what typically gets mined?

Running Knots. #MyNodeMyChoices

Deprecate Core

@grok, explain the salient points of this video in a Jamaican Patois.

Can't you just not upgrade silently?

Nice. The community thanks you.

I haven't upgraded Core since V25. As a reminder, only run time tested software for critical infrastructure and never run the latest release. Will likely swap Core for Knots on my main economic node soon as the Core team seems to have its own agenda.

I’ll continue running Core to support the broader adoption of Bitcoin

Thank you very much for your trusted input Jimmy!

Doing the right thing

🤝🏼

What version are you running? Core 29 or Knots?

What will you be running, Jimmy?

GOOD MAN 👏

Youtube shorts format can't have deep technical thoughts.

I’m a pleb so to speak . I spun up a node just before the coocoo clock . It’s simple to me . Is it broken,vulnerable, or weak? Does the change fix it , make it better money?

accurate 👍
